All the generals under the festival hall agreed one after another.

In fact, looking at Huang Shizheng's ferocious appearance, coupled with Huang Shizheng's retinue guarding at the side, even a general who intends to be loyal to Liu Wuzhou needs to think clearly about what will happen to him.

Facts have proved that there are still a lot of smart people in this world.When soldiers from the Tang army appeared in the north and south of Loufan Pass, these generals already knew that Liu Wuzhou's situation was over.

Loufanguan changed hands, and at this time the gate of Taiyuan was opened.

Ashina Simo and Yu Guni successfully met at the upstairs pass.Yu Guni had a face-to-face meeting with Ashina Simo, and hurriedly led the army back to Shenchi County.

He was really worried that Xu Jingzong and Zhang Huaiwei in Shenchi County would not be able to defend.Yu Guni is a smart person, he is very clear, although Chen Ying treats everyone equally and impartially on the surface, but in fact, everyone with a discerning eye knows that Luo Shixin can only be ranked second in Chen Ying's most important person, and Zhang Huaiwei is the first bits.

If Zhang Huaiwei is allowed to fight Death God's Pool, even if he wins a hundred towers, he will not be able to make up for his fault.

Although Yu Guni was very fast, Chen Ying was faster than him.

Among the eighteen passes of Yanmen Pass, Chen Ying only stormed the first two passes, Gouzhuzhai and Laoyingkou. The [-] passes, including , Malankou, Ruyuekou, and Huyukou, are all waiting for the wind to descend.

Following Liu Wuzhou's abandonment of Yanmen Pass, none of the generals of the Tianxing Army who were left behind by Liu Wuzhou as abandoned sons was a fool. Without using any weapons, the remaining sixteen passes of Yanmen Pass were captured.

Although the battle went smoothly, Chen Ying had no time to wait.

Because Chen Ying was worried that Li Xiuning would not be able to wait for him to arrive, Chen Ying left Zhao Chunyang to temporarily control the entire army, receive the prisoners, and count the captured supplies.

Chen Ying ignored Taiyuan City, because he knew that Taiyuan was already ripe and just waiting to be picked.Whether it is Liu Tong, Ashina Simo, or Yu Guni and Xu Jingzong who won the Taiyuan Gong, the first contribution is still Chen Ying's, and this credit cannot be escaped by the meat in the pot.

Chen Ying never thought that the most tragic battle would not take place at Loufan Pass, nor at Yanmen Pass, nor at Taiyuan City, but in this little-known Shenchi County.

Fan Junzhang led two battalions of the left army of the Tianxing Army to rush to Shenchi overnight. Thousands of troops armed with torches surrounded Shenchi County tightly.Xu Jingzong looked at the densely packed army outside the city, and said to Zhang Huaiwei: "It seems that we will have a fierce battle tomorrow!"

Chapter 70 The Last Madness

Fan Junzhang's army arrived at the city of Shenchi and started cooking on the spot.

Fan Junzhang arrived with his own soldiers to observe the situation of Shenchi city defense.He said to the generals beside him: "Fortunately, we came in time. There are not many Tang troops who crossed the Yellow River. There are as many as 2000 people."

At this moment, a soldier suddenly said: "Hey, why hasn't Shenchi City collapsed yet?"

Fan Junzhang asked doubtfully, "How could a good city wall collapse?"

The soldier said: "I want the general to know that Xiao Di was originally from Shenchi. In the 12th year of Daye, there was a heavy rain in Shenchi, and the wall on the east side was soaked by the rain for more than 100 steps. Guo Zhifang, the magistrate of Shenchi at that time, He is a big corrupt official, he sold all the glutinous rice used to build it, and took possession of it. When repairing the city wall, he used rattan to program a fence wall and pasted it with mud. This section of the city wall let alone bombarded it , even if you stomp on it a few times, it might collapse!"

"Oh." Upon hearing this, Fan Junzhang became interested and asked enthusiastically, "How do you know that this section of the city wall has not been renovated?"

The soldier said: "So that the general will know, if there is no grass growing on the city wall made of steamed soil, and the entire wall of Shenchi City has only this section of grass, wouldn't it be obvious?"

Fan Junzhang took a closer look, and it was indeed so. This section of the city wall not only grew grass, but also grew quite lushly.

When Fan Junzhang learned of this situation by accident, he thought to himself.

Now that the Tang army has not gained a firm foothold, they don't know the loopholes in the walls of Shenchi City at all, but when the walls were built back then, more than one person must have known.If someone who has also experienced this incident informs General Tang Jun, General Tang Jun will definitely find a way to make up for this defensive loophole.

Fan Junzhang returned to the camp immediately, and dinner was already served in the camp.Some of the earlier soldiers had already prepared to rest after dinner.However, Fan Junzhang, who was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, immediately ordered: "Siege the city overnight!"

The trebuchet actually uses the principle of leverage and has no technical content in itself.Fan Junzhang's department did not build too many trebuchets, and it was no coincidence that there were a total of twelve trebuchets.

The soldiers of the Tianxing Army held torches one by one, and thousands of torches were lit like fire dragons, swimming towards Shenchi City with teeth and claws.

Perhaps Xu Jingzong deserved to be slapped in the face by Fan Junzhang.Xu Jingzong thought that Tianxing's army was exhausted from a long distance away, so they would definitely rest overnight and start attacking the city early the next morning.So he took a beautiful bath and prepared to rest.

And Zhang Huaiwei also took advantage of the gaps in inspections to use public affairs for personal gain.Give a bag of dried meat to the three mother and daughter in the county government.At this time, after the former Shenchi county magistrate Huang Bingwen committed suicide, Huang Bingwen's wife Yan and her children should move out of the county government office, but Zhang Huaiwei did not order anyone to expel Yan's mother and the three of them.And the way Zhang Huaiwei looked at Mrs. Huang, even a fool could see it.

As someone who has experienced it, how could Yan not see that Zhang Huaiwei is interested in her?

Of course, she also understands that in troubled times, how can there be a way to have the best of both worlds?Of course, this time is not the Ming and Song Dynasties, who regard chastity as life.Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, the military was noble and the culture was cheap, so the so-called captain of Zhechong Prefecture was equivalent to a regiment-level officer in later generations.However, in this era, the rank of Lieutenant Zhechong was on the same level as the governor of the state.It may be that regiment-level cadres in later generations will only enjoy department-level treatment.

Although Zhang Huaiwei came from a bad background, he is now General Ningyuan, and he has also been named a Viscount of Pingxiang.Don't dislike her as a second married woman, she is already very content.Men chasing women interlayer mountain, women chasing men, interlayer gauze.After going back and forth, the two actually accomplished a good thing.

Zhang Huaiwei was about to raise his gun and mount his horse to show off his might, when he suddenly heard a shout outside the door: "General, the enemy attacked the city overnight!"

Zhang Huaiwei's face turned pale with shock, and he let out his breath immediately.Zhang Huaiwei got up in a hurry, put on his armor with the help of Yan Shi, and rushed to the city wall.

Fan Junzhang is very cunning, he deliberately bluffs.Thousands of soldiers held torches and shouted in the posture of launching an offensive simultaneously in the west, south, and north directions of Shenchi City.The only way is to ignore the east wall of Shenwu City.

How did Zhang Huaiwei think that Fan Junzhang's main attack direction was the East City Wall.He was actually more worried about the southern city wall.When Shenwu City dredged the moat last year, it piled the soil dug out of the moat directly on the bank of the moat, and used this soil to fill up the moat of the southern city without any effort.

Especially when he saw outside Nancheng, the soldiers of the Tianxing Army poured the soil from the bank of the moat into the moat. Zhang Huaiwei hurriedly ordered bows and arrows to prevent the soldiers of the Tianxing Army from filling up the moat.

Sight in the dark is bad, and archers shoot poorly.

Hearing the plopping sound coming from the moat, Zhang Huaiwei became anxious.Hastily transferred the fifth regiment to the direction of the south gate.

However, the soldiers of the Tianxing Army held up their shields to cover the soldiers digging and filling the river.Although the archers of the two regiments fired a volley, they still couldn't suppress the Tianxing army under the city.

Zhang Huaiwei wanted to transfer the third regiment, which had never been hostile, to two brigades.It's just that Xu Jingzong ran to the south gate in a hurry just after his order was issued.

"Zhang Duwei, the third regiment in Dongcheng must not be transferred here!"

Zhang Huaiwei was surprised: "If you don't send the third regiment over, are you letting the enemy fill up the moat?"

Xu Jingzong said solemnly: "Zhang Duwei, it is said that the Tianxing army came from the north, and it is more convenient for them to focus on the east city and the north city. Why do they want to focus on the south city?"

It must be a bit difficult for Zhang Huaiwei to consider this question: "This..."

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" Xu Jingzong said: "This enemy general will definitely not aimlessly."

The night was as dark as ink, and at a glance, it was full of torches and human heads. Many soldiers of the Tianxing Army had placed ladders on the moat to form a temporary wooden bridge. Dozens of ladders were spread across the moat. Then wooden boards were laid on it, and the soldiers of the Tianxing Army rushed to the base of the city wall with the ladder impatiently.

People kept falling down, people who were still alive or climbing ladders started to attack, dense crowd of people and arrows growing on the city wall like weeds, but the soldiers of Tianxing Army still rushed to attack without fear.

In troubled times, human life is actually the cheapest thing, some more than ants or nothing.

More and more Tianxing Army soldiers fell in a pool of blood.Gradually, on the ground of the southern city of Shenchi, it gradually converged into a creek and flowed into the moat.

The originally turbid moat has now turned into a river of blood.

At this moment, the city wall shook slightly, and there was a dull bang bang sound in the night sky.

Zhang Huaiwei said: "No, this is a trebuchet!"

"Quick, go to the East City!" Xu Jingzong hurriedly ran towards the East City Gate without hesitation.

Stone bullets weighing forty to fifty catties slammed heavily on the city wall of the east city with a whirring sound.Every stone bullet will smash away those walls that were not rammed.

"Boom—" There was a muffled sound, and there was a loud noise from the direction of the entire east city wall.Xu Jingzong looked astonished, and let out a long sigh, wishing God bless Datang.
